I know he is doing more labs. I will go to the site for doing her own labs

and see what it is about.

ago I got on NaturalThyroid Hormones and BINGO! I got my periods back like

clockwork,after years of none (they had never been normal or regular even in

my teens)....and nobody would ever test anything but the TSH.

This is supposed to be the best thyroid (endo) in our town. I would be

willing to take her to Dallas , Fort Worth ,or Austin, Texas to get help. If

anyone has any names of docs ,please share.

Thanks again .
